When the Taliban ruled Afghanistan , taking a photo was a crime. After the regime fell from power in 2001, a fledgling free press emerged and a photography revolution was born. Now , as foreign troops and media withdraw, Afghanistan is left to stand on i ts own, and so are its journalists. Set in a modern Afghanistan bursting with color and character, FRAME BY FRAME follows four Afghan photojournal ists as they navigate an emerging and dangerous media landscape – reframin g Afghanistan for the world, and for themselves. Through cinema vérité, intimate interviews, powerful photojournalism, and never-before-seen arc hival footage shot in secret during the Taliban regime, the film connects audiences with four humans in the pursuit of the truth.
